Questions for: Kinematics Of A Particle

The pilot of flighter plane F is following 1.5 km behind the pilot of bomber B. Both planes are originally traveling at 120 m/s. In an effort to pass the bomber, the pilot in F gives his plane a constant acceleration of 12 m/s2. Determine the speed at which the pilot in the bomber sees the pilot of the fighter plane pass at the start of the passing operation the bomber is decelerating at 3 m/s2. Neglect the effect of any turning.

From experimental data, the motion of a jet plane while traveling along a runway is defined by the v-t graph shown. Find the position s and the acceleration a when t = 40 s.

A passenger in the automobile B observes the motion of the train car <>. At the instant shown, the train has a speed of 18 m/s and is reducing its speed at a rate of 1.5 m/s2. The automobile is accelerating at 2 m/s2 and has a speed of 25 m/s. Determine the velocity and acceleration of A with respect to B. The train is moving along a curve of radius <> = 300 m.
